We know that history tells us Jack McCall, going by alias Bill Sutherland at the time, killed James Butler โ€œWild Billโ€ Hickok on August 2, 1876 at Nuttal and Mannโ€™s Saloon No. 10 in Deadwood, Dakota Territory. What we donโ€™t know is why he did it. It was noted that McCall was cross-eyed and his nose had been broken by being struck with a six-shooter, so is it possible McCall may have suffered brain trauma with hallucinations and paranoia or did he actually encounter what he found down that Trail of Darkness? That, my dear reader, is for you to decide.
